You'll Need:

  • 2 lbs ground beef
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 small onions
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1 tbsp thyme
  • 1 tbsp rosemary
  • 2 tbsp ketchup

  • 6 oz shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 10 hard-boiled eggs
  • 6 oz mozzarella pearls

Here's How:

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Cook the pasta and set the noodles aside. Brown the ground beef with the vegetables and then add the thyme, rosemary, ketchup, tomato puree, salt, and pepper.

2. Mix the noodles with the sauce.

3. Line a casserole dish with parchment paper, add a layer of pasta, smooth out the top, and sprinkle grated parmesan and shredded mozzarella on top.

4. Cut 10 hard-boiled eggs in half and put the halves face down. Fill the spaces between the eggs with mozzarella pearls.

5. Add a layer of mortadella, followed by a layer of pasta. Sprinkle parmesan and mozzarella cheese on top and bake for 40 minutes.
